Kenora MP Optimistic for Highway 17 Twinning

Some hope that the twinning of the Trans-Canada Highway might begin in the next 12 months or so.

Kenora M.P. Greg Rickford was asked a couple of times Friday morning about where the project stood by members of the Kenora and District Chamber of Commerce.

Rickford feels there is some movement now with Shoal Lake #39 on the project.

Rickford says he had expected work on the project to begin this fall, but that's not going to happen.
